Abstract :
A charge conserving macromodel convenient to use and effective for the simulation of the charge injection behavior of MOSFET switches has been presented. The macromodel is compared with the SPICE level 2 charge conserving model. The accuracy of the macromodel is tested by measuring the clock-feed-through error of a simple sample-and-hold circuit. The macromodel is accurate even at high switching speed because of its distributed nature and because of its ability to simulate the leakage current to the bulk
